Don't you think it epitomizes "FOR THE WIN!"? Let's ignore the fact that Ben snapped this picture while Eli was on the changing table, straining to squeeze one out!2015-05-18T03:02:55+00:00monthlyhttps://forthevinh.com/2015/02/19/elis-7th-month/https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/img_4689.jpgIMG_4689Jan 31 (7m12d) - Here, you are modeling your new inflatable rubber ducky travel bathtub. I don't think you like it as much as your normal tub because the water isn't as deep as you like it. But sweet baby that you are, you didn't complain!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/img_4688.jpgIMG_4688Feb 1 (7m13d) - In front of the tower at Udvar-Hazy Center. It was COOOOLD up in Northern Virginia, and we got to the museum with about 30 minutes before closing. Good thing, because the museum wasn't too crowded, and parking was FREE! https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/img_4687.jpgIMG_4687Feb 1 (7m13d) - In front of the surprisingly large Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird at the Udvar-Hazy Center. Did you know that, for its last ever flight, this plane flew from LA to Washington, D.C. in in 1 hour, 4 minutes, and 20 seconds?! Wow!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/img_4651.jpgIMG_4651Feb 18 (7m30d) - I tried to take you for a run at Riverview Park two days after the snowstorm, but the path was still PACKED with snow. Regardless, we ran the small loop (the BOB stroller was amazing!). I think you were tickled by the BUMPY ride!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/961632_540919796011710_1690260649_n.jpg961632_540919796011710_1690260649_nhttps://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/10928569_541872332583123_1318819550_n.jpg10928569_541872332583123_1318819550_nhttps://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/10937470_541872325916457_1562554324_n.jpg10937470_541872325916457_1562554324_nJanhttps://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/10942791_545817038855319_1828423046_n.jpg10942791_545817038855319_1828423046_nJan 28 (7m9d) - It was snowing outside today, so I decided to bring you out on the deck for your first experience with snowfall. Either you didn't really notice, or you weren't particularly impressed!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/10952097_545817062188650_2078827436_n.jpg10952097_545817062188650_2078827436_nJan 28 (7m9d) - See, the next second you're already smiling! :Dhttps://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/10949818_545817058855317_1409832381_n.jpg10949818_545817058855317_1409832381_nJan 28 (7m9d) - Ông and Bà bought you this awesome play yard with toys built in to the sides! Despite your face, you LOVE playing in here. You had just whacked your head on the ring toys and were about to cry. You have the cutest sad face, but I'm grateful that it's pretty rare and lasts only a moment. 2015-05-18T03:01:16+00:00monthlyhttps://forthevinh.com/2015/04/28/elis-8th-month/https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/img_4829.jpgIMG_4829Mar 16 (8m25d) - Look at your cute legs (taken from the bouncer). You have new shoes! (Socks on one foot, new shoes on the other ... similar color!)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/img_4819.jpgIMG_4819Mar 12 (8m3w) - And to think, the first time I put you in the play yard, you practically started crying! Look at that smile! :Dhttps://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/img_4806.jpgIMG_4806Mar 9 (8m18d) - Soooooo mesmerizing!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/img_4804.jpgIMG_4804Mar 9 (8m18d) - In this series, your look of wonderment is in response to my whistling!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/img_4801.jpgIMG_4801Mar 9 (8m18d) - You still love your bouncer! You're spinning all the toys around you at this point.https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/img_4799.jpgIMG_4799Mar 9 (8m18d) - Everything's off! Hat, sunglasses, socks! https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/img_4796.jpgIMG_4796Mar 9 (8m18d) -Though you also like your feet! (This picture makes it look like you just picked something off your feet and are eating it; however, I just gave you a Bamba (an Israeli peanut snack)!)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/img_4794.jpgIMG_4794Mar 9 (8m18d) - I think you like them as much as you do Sophie!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/img_4792.jpgIMG_4792Mar 9 (8m18d) - The sunglasses are about to come off!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/img_4791.jpgIMG_4791Mar 9 (8m18d) - A week later, it was so warm that you were wearing shorts and no blanket in your carseat! (You then also pulled off your socks, sunglasses, and cap.)2015-05-18T03:00:04+00:00monthlyhttps://forthevinh.com/2015/04/28/elis-9th-month/https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/img_4994.jpgIMG_4994Apr 18 (9m29d) - A family picture at the waterfall (but where's the waterfall?!). Your dad and I were just how perfect this picture was (even YOU were looking at the phone), when we noticed Riley's ... butt! We forgot to tell her to look, too! :D P.S. the waterfall was much bigger than that cascade you see behind us. https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/img_4991.jpgIMG_4991Apr 18 (9m29d) - And your first sleeveless top ... on our way to your first waterfall hike (Lower Shamokin Falls)! You had just put some fruit bar in your mouth, hence the pucker (I think)!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/img_4996.jpgIMG_4996Apr 18 (9m29d) - Look, Eli! Your first overalls! We were Skyping with Auntie Kit at the moment (see the iPad). You had just crawled under (through?) your walker, though your butt got stuck a little! You never gave up though. You wiggled out like a champ!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/img_4989.jpgIMG_4989Apr 17 (9m28d) - Here you are modeling a hat at Target. (And by modeling, I mean pulling off.) Notice that you are seated backwards in the seat of the shopping cart. the seat belt is loose, so you can wiggle yourself 180º and have your back to me! But you can't wiggle back and you end up whining in frustration. I ended up carrying you and pushing the cart at the same time.https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/img_4982.jpgIMG_4982Apr 14 (9m25d) - Exploring the other side of your toy! I'm not sure how you managed to wiggle your way behind that bar, but you did it! You love to pull that string that causes the flower to spin!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/img_4977.jpgIMG_4977Apr 12 (9m23d) - Look at you thumping away on the kitchen cabinet!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/img_4971.jpgIMG_4971Apr 9 (9m20d) - You're a happy baby as long as you get to put something in your mouth -- in this case, the zip string of your new mint green jacket! (Who says it's not fun to dress up baby boys?!) :Dhttps://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/img_4959.jpgIMG_4959Apr 7 (9m18d) - You used to have such a hard time pulling yourself up to standing in the play yard. Now you can pretty much reach the bathroom doorknob without having to tiptoe!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/img_4944.jpgIMG_4944Apr 4 (9m15d) - You love to look out the window! Here you are peeking out through the curtains and blinds, enjoying the morning sun. https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/img_4941.jpgIMG_4941Apr 3 (9m2w) - Well, hello there, my old friend. I'm now experiencing you in a seated position. Just be glad I'm using my hands rather than my feet to play the piano. 2015-04-29T03:56:03+00:00monthlyhttps://forthevinh.com/2015/02/18/elis-half-year6th-month/https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/group-playground.jpggroup playgroundJan 11 (6m23d) - You were a bit cranky a little after this. I remember talking about Everett's teeth (he's about 6 months older than you). Little did I know that you, too, were teething! I REALLY felt your tooth the following night when you had a hard time falling asleep!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/swing.jpgswingJan 11 (6m23d) - It was a very busy weekend, with Bubbe & Zayde visiting AS WELL AS our dear friends, Matt (your dad's childhood best friend) + Chelsea with their adorable son, Everett! We had fun at the playground, but you were also getting tired.https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/playground.jpgplaygroundJan 18 (6m30d) - We took a walk to the playground again this evening. We took several trips down the slide, a ride in the roundabout, and sat in the giant bungee swing. I think you were still quite unimpressed! :)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/eli-kick.jpgeli kickJan 18 (6m30d) - On this warm day, you showed off your flexibility in your old friend, the rocker. you can now reach the overhead toys easily, since you can just sit straight up!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/eli-shopping-cart.jpgeli shopping cartJan 16 (6m28d) - At Harris Teeter, where we were buying ingredients to make gumbo. You may not seem displeased about this shopping cart seat (your first time ever!), but minutes later, while Ông was taking another picture of you, you burst into tears! I had to get you OUT of the seat!! (We tried again at the Fresh Market on your 7th month birthday, and you were fine this time. Of course, Ông was jogging around the whole supermarket to keep you entertained in the seat!)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/sleeping-eli.jpgsleeping eliJan 14 (6m26d) - You were really fighting nap time today! You kept wanting to play and crawl out of your bassinet. Ông stayed upstairs with you (to make sure you didn't fall off the bed), when you finally fell asleep out of sheer exhaustion, straddling the adult bed, body pillow, and bassinet. Too funny!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/img_4471.jpgIMG_4471Jan 18 (6m30d) - Another one of Bubbe + Zayde's gift! You wore this shirt the day the Patriots played the Colts and beat them 45-7. Now there's a controversy that 11 of the 12 balls used in the game were underinflated. What a dramatic way to debut this sporty fashion!!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/img_4467.jpgIMG_4467Jan 16 (6m28d) - And this is the first time you slept without your bassinet! (Notice that it's on the left side of the picture.) You kept trying to crawl out of it (see previous picture), so I finally just took it away. The funny thing was that I had tried to take out the bassinet in mid-December (when Ông and Bà first arrived), but you were so excited by all the space that you couldn't sleep! https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/img_4462.jpgIMG_4462Jan 12 (6m24d) - Look at that smile!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/img_4461.jpgIMG_4461Jan 12 (6m24d) - Mom, why do you keep taking pictures of me? I'm waiting for the next bite!2015-02-18T20:22:10+00:00monthlyhttps://forthevinh.com/2014/12/19/elis-5th-month/https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/img_4245.jpgIMG_4245Dec 17 (5m28d) - Why no picture on the 16th? We drove up to Dulles to pick up Ông and Bà -- your longest car trip. We left around 9:30 AM and didn't get home until 4:30 PM. (Stopped to eat pho) You were wonderful even though you barely slept through the car ride. So our routines were way off on the 16th, but we picked back up with a walk at Monticello on the 17th. (But even that was off, because you slept in pretty late, and it was close to sunset when we started the walk, as you can see in this picture. By the time we were done, it was pretty much dark!)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/img_4269.jpgIMG_4269Dec 18 (26 weeks) - It takes forever to get you changed now, my wiggly little worm rolling all over the changing table!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/img_4273.jpgIMG_4273Dec 18 (26 weeks) - What's that, Mama? There's a surprise for me tomorrow? What is it? (Wait and see!)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/img_4272.jpgIMG_4272Dec 18 (26 weeks) - So I took you upstairs to get you changed into your pajamas and chanced to take some pictures of you being silly!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/img_4265.jpgIMG_4265Dec 18 (26 weeks) - We waited too long to snap this series of pictures, so you weren't in a very smiley mood. (You wanted to sleep.) https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/img_4249.jpgIMG_4249Dec 18 (26 weeks!) - Half a year old, Eli! I wanted to get you a party hat but forgot, so we turned this Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupon into a party hat! I don't think you were too pleased with that. https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/img_4240.jpgIMG_4240Dec 15 (5m26d) - See? Like I said, you like the tower more!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/img_4237.jpgIMG_4237Dec 15 (5m26d) - You love playing with the Fisher-Price ring stacking toy, but I'm not sure if you like the hoops or the tower more. From this picture, I would venture to guess that you like the tower more.https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/img_4228.jpgIMG_4228Dec 14 (5m25d) - Back at Carter's Apple Orchard one week before they close for the season. It was also probably the longest you've sat in the Beco carrier. https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/img_4221.jpgIMG_4221Dec 13 (5m24d) - And then Riley wanted to join in on the fun! You kept trying to hug her, but she kept sticking her butt in your face so you could scratch her favorite spot. It was pretty funny to hear your confused grunt, "What's she doing?!"2014-12-19T18:17:34+00:00monthlyhttps://forthevinh.com/2014/11/27/the-unsoggiest-cereal-ever-tales-of-a-neurotic-mother/https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_40801-e1417149141174.jpgIMG_4080https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_4088.jpgIMG_4088OMG, Mom. Are you writing about me? Again??https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_4077.jpgIMG_4077Celebrating another first - your first Thanksgiving!!2014-11-28T04:48:51+00:00monthlyhttps://forthevinh.com/2014/11/19/elis-4th-month/https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_4031.jpgIMG_4031Nov 18 (4m30d) - Just one day shy of your 5th month! Before our COLD run to the downtown mall, I noticed that you and I were dress in identical colors, so we had to have Dad take a snapshot! I had just woken you up from a nice, long nap, but you were still smiling! :)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_4015.jpgIMG_4015Nov 16 (4m28d) - Perhaps you were so quiet in the stroller because you were playing with your fingers. These days, you are most interested in your fingers!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_4014.jpgIMG_4014Nov 16 (4m28d) - So, we got home and I put you down for your nap, since it had been two hours since you woke up. For almost a full hour, you kept rolling over onto your back and pulling the balls hanging over your bassinet down! You weren't unhappy, but you definitely did NOT sleep! After an hour (I snuck in a shower, folded the laundry and put them away), I picked you up, changed your diaper and nursed you. And then, you fell asleep!!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_4013.jpgIMG_4013Nov 16 (4m28d) - Many interesting things happened on this day. During our run at Riverview, it started raining. Luckily, your BundleMe kept you pretty protected from the elements; however, since I couldn't see you, I didn't know if you were asleep or not. (You were pretty silent!)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_3996.jpgIMG_3996Nov 14 (21 weeks) - Since yesterday, I noticed that you were trying to get your feet in your hands and pull them towards your mouth! I snapped this picture before we headed out for a (cold) run at Riverview. Later that night, while you were chilling out in the swing and reaching for your foot again, you pulled off your sock and put THAT in your mouth instead! We Skyped with Ông and Bà before bed and you finally succeeded in putting your foot in your mouth! That's the only evidence I have of this momentous occasion! No photographic proof!! https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_3994.jpgIMG_3994Nov 14 (4m26d) - And you can even gnaw on Sophie, all hands-free!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_3992.jpgIMG_3992Nov 14 (4m26d) - Look who's proud of himself for being on his tummy!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_3991.jpgIMG_3991Nov 14 (21 weeks) - No more week stickers! :( But now that you're a bonafide roller-overer, you don't need no stinkin' stickers anymore, right? (Well, except maybe for the months!)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_3985.jpgIMG_3985Nov 12 (4m24d) - Today, you got to meet Dr. Kilfoil, the doctor who brought you into this world! And then we went running in the warm 71ºF weather on Riverview. You fell asleep because I ran during your nap time, and you woke up smiling! :) What a trooper!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_3826.jpgIMG_3826Oct 25 (4m6d) - A warmer walk on Big Meadows (the warmest one so far). Dad tried using the jogger without the carseat attachment. It worked okay, but I hated not being able to see you, so you've been in the carseat again. I suspect I'll keep using the carseat until you outgrow it (30 pounds is the limit, and at your four-month appointment, you were 15.9 pounds! Over halfway there!)2014-11-20T04:50:02+00:00monthlyhttps://forthevinh.com/2014/10/19/elis-3rd-month/https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/img_3756.jpgIMG_3756Oct 16 (17 wks) - OMG! I can't believe I've got hands!!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/img_3752.jpgIMG_3752Oct 16 (17 wks) - Whoa ... dude ... are these, like, my hands?https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/img_3749.jpgIMG_3749Oct 16 (17 wks) - YES! I DO BELIEVE THEY ARE!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/img_3746.jpgIMG_3746Oct 16 (17 wks) - Like, really MINE?https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/img_3766.jpgIMG_3766Oct 18 (17 w 2 d) - Another hike in cold weather (45ºF, blustery winds) at Big Meadows. You can't see, but Eli is wearing his skeleton hoodie, just in time for Halloween! https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/img_3765.jpgIMG_3765Oct 18 (17 w 2 d) - Trusty Sophie accompanies him on almost all trips!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/img_3764.jpgIMG_3764Oct 17 (17 w 1 d) - No, seriously, like my fist tastes AMAZING! This picture was taken through Skype on Grandma's iPad in Bangkok while Mom was dressing me after my bath. Talk about convoluted!! :)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/img_3763.pngIMG_3763Oct 17 (17 w 1 d) - See, you can see the corner of Grandma's head in this Skype screenshot! Meanwhile, Eli stuns in yet another preppy cardigan! ;) Look, Mom's going to enjoy dressing up her baby for as long as she can before he starts protesting, okay? :)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/img_3761.jpgIMG_3761Oct 17 (17 w 1 d) - Still, Eli can't hide his sweet smile in his adorable raincoat! (Another Skype picture)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/img_3758.jpgIMG_3758Oct 17 (17 w 1 d) - We (Grandma and I) noticed that Eli was trying out a new smile. In Thai, it's called "ยิ้มแหยๆ" but there's no approximation for it in English. Dry smile? Regardless, it's hilarious, and Grandma captured it on Skype!2014-10-20T00:02:25+00:00monthlyhttps://forthevinh.com/2014/09/21/eli-9-12-weeks/https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/img_1274.jpgIMG_1274Aug 25 (9 w 4 d) - All tuckered out after playing. Thanks, Aunt Katie, for the cute onesie! Mom is glad Eli is not quite a speedster yet though! :)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/img_3402.jpgIMG_3402Sep 11 (12 wks) -- Finally! He's becoming a pro at these sticker photo sessions! (Okay, not really ... if anything, he's getting quite wiggly at these photo sessions!)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/img_3388.jpgIMG_3388Sep 9 (11 w 5 d) - You can't see, but Eli is wearing Muay Thai shorts that my sister (Auntie Kit) bought for him. So cute that he can't resist cackling, it seems! This is my phone wallpaper. It makes me laugh!!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/img_3386.jpgIMG_3386Sep 8 (11 w 4 d) - His best smile for his grandpa. He loves it when his grandpa (Ông) speaks to him in Vietnamese and flashes the widest grins!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/img_3380.jpgIMG_3380Sep 7 (11 w 3 d) - And we also changed him on a park bench. What an adventure!! All full and clean now!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/img_3376.jpgIMG_3376Sep 7 (11 w 3 d)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/img_3372.jpgIMG_3372Sep 7 (11 w 3 d) - We left the barbecue early because Eli seemed ready for a nap (read: whining). As we headed out, Eli fell asleep, so we decided to go for a long drive to Target. Then, as we neared Target, he woke up and started getting irritated, so we decided I should nurse him. This is how we ended up at the dog park at Chris Greene Lake. What a picturesque scene! (This is after he nursed on a bench that appeared to be the home of a large, inquisitive honeybee.)https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/img_3370.jpgIMG_3370Sep 7 (11 w 3 d) - We were invited to a cookout by the owner of our favorite Thai restaurant. We came about an hour late because we were trying to get Eli to nap. It didn't happen (although Eli slept in the car on the way to their new house.) I was impressed that he never got cranky! Delicious food and lots of people cooing over Eli! What a day!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/img_3339.jpgIMG_3339Sep 6 (11 w 2 d) - See? Chào Bà!

There, he got his first Pentacel shot, causing a fever. He was extremely unhappy for about two hours but then recovered valiantly. What a little trooper!https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/img_3120.jpgIMG_31208 weeks 3 days - Loosening his necktie after a hard day at the office?https://forthevinh.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/img_3119.jpgIMG_31198 weeks 3 days - He can't believe what his dad just said.
